The Company Brewing teams have done it again. Packing in and throwing down. That’s the name of the game over there. So let see these scores, shall we? At 44 points last night it was efukt.com, which seems more like the name of some 1990s website. Impressively high score for a last place finish. …

Madison was looking good last night. Sure, the Glass Nickel scores were kind of horrifying, but the crowd was great. I just looked out from behind my computer and thought, “Trivia, you looking like a bajilli.” Of course, the scores are where the games are won or lost. The scores are where league points are …

Here’s what we knew was going to happen last night: Neal of Fortune was going to win. They’ve had this thing wrapped since Labor Day. But there were so many things we didn’t expect: Who knew Neal of Fortune would also BRING prizes? Not me. But Alex showed up with Film Festival tickets for everyone. …

Milwaukee, You’re now entering week two of your fall league. Can you believe it? They grow up so fast. The Once Brilliant Detectives are off to an early lead, but it’s small lead and anyone could overtake them with a simple flexing of knowledge. Perhaps the Tunnel Snakes can do it tonight.

Madison, tonight is the the night! Let me start over. A couple years ago, the anchor of Neal of Fortune, Alexandra dropped a Thin Lizzy greatest hits compilation on me, because I said I had no clue who Thin Lizzy was. It turns out, I have heard as many as several Thin Lizzy songs. So, I’m …

You remember that dude you met in your late teens or early twenties. You probably went to his place to buy some weed, or maybe some mushrooms, but definitely not MDMA. We all know your MDMA lead was on a whole different level. Like the first time you saw the Helena character in Orphan Black …

I hope you all like sports. Why? Because we have like 50 goddamned questions about sports coming up tonight. This puts me in a very vulnerable position, because there is the likelihood of something like this happening: Host: For which NBA team, other than the Bulls, did Mike Jordan play hoops? The answer …

Gloomy day here at WHTGHQ. I’m pretty sure the photoactive eyes in the giraffes at the security gate were still glowing when I arrived this morning.
